In 2022, Wells launched a credit card with Bilt Technologies, a fintech startup with big-name backers including Blackstone and Mastercard.

More than one million accounts were activated in the first 18 months, many by young adults. About six months after the credit card was launched, Wells began paying Bilt a fee of about 0.80% of each rent transaction, even though the bank isn’t collecting interchange fees from landlords. Wells also pays Bilt $200 each time a new card account is issued The credit-card program helped catapult Bilt’s valuation to $3.1 billion in a January fundraising round, up from $1.5 billion in late 2022. But Wells is losing as much as $10 million every month on the program. The financial losses triggered a renegotiation of the program that has been under way for months. Wells has told Bilt that it doesn’t intend to renew the contract, which is scheduled to end in 2029.

Interesting read with your morning coffee ☕ Boston and several other cities are starting a crackdown on dangerous food delivery drivers and the city is demanding answers from the heads of DoorDash, Grubhub and Uber Eats. "Many of these drivers are operating unregistered vehicles. We have witnessed widespread and ongoing incidents of running red lights, driving on city sidewalks, driving the wrong way down one-way streets, driving at speeds in excess of posted limits, and collisions," the letter states. "This type of operation puts the delivery driver, and any pedestrian or driver of a motor vehicle who encounters them, in imminent danger." This letter was sent from Boston's police commissioner to DoorDash CEO Tony Xu, GrubHub CEO Howard Midgal and Pierre-Dimitri Gore-Coty, the senior vice president of delivery for Uber. The increased traffic, carbon emissions and the above stated dangerous driving, especially in multifamily communities are issues that is being considered in the upcoming launch of a new methodology of food delivery services. #fooddelivery #uber #doordash #grubhub #multifamily https://lnkd.in/gfs4pRJB

Pensions, like sovereign-wealth funds, university endowments and family offices, generally either buy properties outright or invest through private fund managers. Some analysts and pension advisers suspect those managers are themselves slow to report losses. Share prices of publicly traded real-estate investment trusts have generally fallen much further than private marks. #pensionfunds #multifamily

Dallas’ Multifamily Market Poised for a Turnaround

There's a singular company behind the exorbitant housing prices in Arizona and D.C. though the states are thousands of miles away from each other. The attorney general of the District of Columbia calls the company an illegal housing cartel due to the tactics used and the money made. The company is called RealPage, which uses an algorithm that pulls from renters confidential information to skew the housing prices. "We're talking about an algorithm that aggregates otherwise confidential information that the landlords have that ordinarily they would not share with their competitors," Washington D.C. Attorney General, Brian Schwalb says. "That allows then the algorithm to spit out a pricing recommendation. All designed to keep the overall market at its highest peak." #apartmentliving #multifamily
